Chaos Group Brings Total Chaos to 3D Render Developers

In May, Chaos Group is bringing Total Chaos to rendering enthusiasts from around the world. A new event dedicated to the art and science of computer graphics rendering, Total Chaos will be held in Sofia, Bulgaria on 18-19 May and brings together experts from architectural visualization, automotive design, games and visual effects for two days of technical previews, product launches and masterclasses.

Formerly known as Chaos Group's yearly CG² events, Total Chaos is a shared space for 3D artists and developers to connect and explore rendering from a variety of angles. Using the event’s three tracks - Art, Craft, Code - attendees can build a schedule that reflects their interests, and may involve learning from their peers, trying out new tools and techniques or watching an exclusive presentation.

Total Chaos launches with 25 speakers, including artists and technical experts from Porsche, Brick Visual, Blur, Method Studios and Nurulize. In addition to the series of presentations, several hands-on workshops and masterclasses will be taught by developers, artists and others who can explain their production workflows and share their tips and tricks. Class sizes are limited.

During a specialised series of talks, the teams behind both V-Ray and Corona renderers will show off their latest innovations, including new functions and developments. With recent advances to AI, GPU, cloud and real-time rendering, lead developers Vlado Koylazov, also CTO and co-founder of Chaos Group, and Ondřej Karlik will present their ideas on the future of rendering. “Total Chaos will be a chance to talk about the art and technology of computer graphics, share ideas and become inspired,” Vlado said. “We’re excited to open a unique opportunity to a worldwide audience, bringing artists and developers together in one place.”
